Why jNote?

I was always unhappy about using my text notes only on my Psion Series 5mx PDA. I wanted to use them on the psion and the pc. The application I used was written in OPL and only running on the Psion. So the only way would be complicated conversion to get the data to my pc and back again. Additional I discovered that while the files on the psion were password protetected I could use a disk editor and read my saved notes without problem! Very funny protection: lock the door but leave the window open. So I decided it was time to do something on my own.
That's the history how it came to jNote. It took a lot more time to develop than I had thought it would take, because of several bugs in the implementation of the Java virtual machine on the Psion. But now it's running.
I wrote it for my own usage and never intended to make any money out of it. It is only a very small application. But maybe there are other people who find it useful too.
It is freeware, but I would like to ask you one favour if you try it. Please send me an email, because I would be very happy to know what you are thinking about it and if there are other people who find jNote useful too.
Have fun!
